| Summary: | Dislocated hip joint is a painful condition, which requires urgent reduction. Previously, ultrasound (US)-guided pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block has been used for reduction of dislocated prosthetic hip. We have used landmark-guided PENG block in two patients of dislocation of prosthetic hip. We suggest that the landmark-guided technique of PENG block can be used safely and successfully as an alternative technique, where US facility is not available. |
